Research Notes

Additional research is needed to see if he owned property in any counties besides Stewart County, GA, such as Muscogee County where his father's property was.

See the formerly enslaved Cook family listed on the 1870 census with George. Were they enslaved by George or his family?

Why is he not listed on the Stewart County, GA 1864 tax digest for Stewart County?
